The Day He Left, I Can Still


Mask work by Judith Costello


the day he left, i can still

the day he left, i can still
remember the look
of the evening
sky floating to meet
me when i emerged
from the train station,
glistening.

the five-day-old
moon held its five-day-old
smile, a frozen misfit of a
mouth, so new and already
a consummate hunter,
glistening.
